2 PROGRES GRYPHAX comparison Comparison of PROGRES GRYPHAX ARKTUR Refine every microscope workstation. PROGRES GRYPHAX ARKTUR replaces all 3 MPix microscope cameras. PROGRES GRYPHAX ARKTUR is made as an advanced solution for routine microscope applications, using a 2/3 back-illuminated CMOS sensor made by SONY. This camera provides high dynamic range images with non-visible noise, combined with the brilliant Jenoptik color reproduction. Fast live images are provided by 2, 3 or 8 MPix. Within this comparison we take a look at the ProgRes SpeedXTcore 3 compared to PROGRES GRYPHAX ARKTUR, the successor of all 3 MPix ProgRes CCD cameras. Sensor/Camera ProgRes SpeedXTcore 3 with IR cut filter PROGRES GRYPHAX ARKTUR with IR cut filter Utilized sensor diagonal 8,93 mm 10,58 mm FPS 17 at 3 MPix (2080 x 1542) With interlace effect 30 at 8 MPix (3840 x 2160) 50 at Full HD Quantum Efficiency 532nm (green) 0.30 QE(λ) see spectral data 0.64 QE(λ) see spectral data Dark Noise [DN/e-] 1,12 DN (at 10 bit); 9e- 0.4 DN; 6e- Dynamic Range (DR) 58.5 db 66.0 db By reason on our measurements, done within our laboratory and based on guidelines of EMVA 1288.

3 Sensor PROGRES GRYPHAX ARKTUR s equipped with SONY s back-illuminated CMOS sensor technology. Source: Graphic done by Jenoptik based on information from With a conventional front-illumination structure, the metal wiring and transistors on the surface of the silicon substrate that form the sensor's light-sensitive area (photo-diode) impede photon gathering carried out by the on-chip lens, and this has also been an important issue in the miniaturization of pixels and widening optical angle response. A back-illuminated structure minimizes the degradation of sensitivity to optical angle response, while also increasing the amount of light that enters each pixel due to the lack of obstacles such as metal wiring and transistors that have been moved to the reverse of the silicon substrate. However, compared to conventional frontilluminated structures, back-illuminated structures commonly causes problems such as noise, dark current, defective pixels and color mixture that lead to image degradation and also cause a decrease in the signal-to-noise ratio. To overcome this Sony has developed a unique photo-diode structure and on-chip lens optimized for back-illuminated structures, that achieves a higher sensitivity and a lower random noise without light by reducing noise, dark current and defect pixels compared to the conventional front-illuminated structure. Additionally, Sony's advanced technologies such as high-precision alignment have addressed any color mixture problems. Quantum efficiency with IR-cut filter: Source: information from
